Comic Madness Review: DESTROYER #1

Comic Madness Review:  DESTROYER #1
by Troy

I always felt that Robert Kirkman’s work on Marvel books has been terrible.  I mean come on — Ultimate Marvel Team-up? Jubilee? Freaking crappy ass Marvel Zombies?  Ugh I found more interesting things written on the bathroom wall at the Madness, and no Wade I’m not “looking for a good time”.  But back to what I was saying, I hated Kirkman’s Marvel work, until I read Destroyer.  What a Great book, Kirkman at his best.  Providing the pencils is Cory Walker (Invincible) whose work on this book tops even his work in Invincible and Astounding Wolf-Man (which is also a great book).  This book is not for the faint of heart though. The level of ultraviolence is unimaginable.  No spoilers but at one point he reaches into a guy’s mouth and pulls out his heart (sOOoooOOOooo AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!)! But if you’re ok with that, def. check out Destroyer, you will no be disappointed!

This book gets a SOLID 8 out of 10!

Free Comic Book Day is TOMORROW!!!

Friday, May 1st, 2009

Helllooooo, peoples!

The first Saturday in May is comin’ up, and that can only mean two things:

1) The weather is getting nicer and more people will be out an’ about, therefore increasing the chances of spreading the dreaded Swine Flu! [puts on surgical mask]

and

2) FREE COMIC BOOK DAY!!!

WHEN: Saturday, May 2nd from 10am to 10pm
WHERE: Wade’s Comic Madness
WHAT: FREE COMICS!! We’re talkin’ WOLVERINE, STAR WARS, GREEN LANTERN: BLACKEST NIGHT (oooh, scary!), SIMPSONS, ALIENS/PREDATOR, AVENGERS, TRANSFORMERS/GI JOE, and some other jawns you probably wouldn’t normally care about but will take for free ;)
WHO: [in my best Gary Oldman voice:] EVERRYYOOONNNE!!!!!!

Other stuffs goin’ on:

Except for new-this-month items, EVERYTHING will be 50% OFF!!! Yes, that means wall books. Yes, that means statues. Hardcover books? Yup. How’bout the swee Silver Surfer T-shirt in XXXL? The answer, my incredibly large friend, is YES.

And even MORE impressively: We’re opening up the basement inventory — all comics down there will be discounted to only 99 CENTS each!!!

GRAB BAGS!! Five bucks a piece, and WHO KNOWS what you’ll get in there! All I can say is that it probably won’t be edible. Any more.

Also: Meet Marvel Comics artist DENNIS CALERO (X-Men: Noir, X-Factor) from 10am – 2pm — I’m sure he’ll be happy to sign any of his works, as long as you say please, or if you shine his shoes.
(I should get a shoe-shine — can sneakers even BE shined? I’ll hafta ask Dennis…)

And some other super-awesome happenings, I’m sure.

Make sure you check out all the cool commercials from Uncle Nagy’s House at Comic Madness Videos!!

All right, see you then!

Ghost Rider Figure by Marvel Select

Saturday, April 18th, 2009

Ok, I dunno if you’ve been to the Madness lately, but the place is just lousy with  stuff. I mean, it’s pretty much wall-to-wall comics, trades, toys, Martian Manhunter clocks — there’s so much crap to buy that it’s starting to get ridiculous. So Wade decided that, in the interest of having less stuff, we can sell some of it off at startingly low prices on this very weblog. We’ve dubbed the initiative “Deal of the Week”, and you can probably infer from that how often it will occur.

Our first Deal of the Week is none other than the Spirit of Vengeance himself, Ghost Rider. And I’m not talking about that Danny Ketch jerk or the dude on the horse. This is the real deal Jonny Blaze guy that Method Man got his nickname from.

Here’s the “feature” list from Amazon:

  • Ghost Rider was a 2007 film starring Nicholas Cage as Johnny Blaze
  • Johnny Blaze made a deal with the Devil and became Ghost Rider, the Spirit of Vengeance
  • Stands 7″ tall complete with deluxe base
  • This highly-detailed figure release features multiple points of articulation

I question whether the first two bullet points are actually features and not just unfortunate realities. In any case, this figure normally retails for $20, but for one week only we are offering it at the low low price of $8 (+ $7 shipping).

Don’t believe me that this is a really good deal? Well then, just press play on the video above and I’ll let Lincoln take care of the hard sell.

This offer is exclusive to domestic customers and only good while supplies last.
